 You think top players will move to Everton in 3 years because they have a new stadium and give out tickets to youngsters?

Their owner isn't going to do that. I think the owner is just trying to raise them to the level to compete for Europe etc, he's not super rich like Chelsea or City, he wants them to be self sufficient and keep hold of their best players. If Everton got a Rooney coming through now, they would not have to sell unless the player wanted to leave, like they have had to with Lukaku.

So why is it such a show of intent if only three at a push would be any good for us? They are coming from behind us, so needed more players out of which 2 or 3 would have improved our squad. They also spent more than us in the last window and currently more than us, so they are showing more intent though they probably won't be able to catch up over 2 windows. If we both continue our respective trends, then they have a good chance of overtaking us in a couple of seasons. They've only bought players that would suit their position. The only player they bought that could improve us is Keane. If they were showing real intent then they'd have kept Lukaku and bought fewer players but of a higher standard. This is their owner trying to win their fans over by just buying everyone he can. Trouble is they're all average and if you think just buying average players will make them better than us then you're wrong. Who they buy depends a lot on their manager, an owner can only show intent by spending as they are not supposed to choose the players. Keeping Lukaku was not really an option as the player had made up him mind long ago, even before the end of last season, a bit same as our situation with Suarez. So currently, for me, their owner is showing more intent than ours unless it's our manager who for whatever reasons doesn't want to spend, but this we'll find out in a couple of weeks. Whether they are successful or not will depend on who their manager bought and used the players. If they were going in the right direction Lukaku would have wanted to go. Buying a load of average players doesn't keep your best players.

Well you just said you think those players will go to Everton in years time when they have a new stadium and set the foundations. Now you've retreated from that claim?

In 3 years you said. Everton don't have the funds to pay for top players, even with a new stadium.

Lukaku left because he felt he didn't have the time to wait three or four seasons for Everton to kick on, same reason Torres left us because he thought time was moving on for him to win the games major honours. I think Everton like I said will end up with us, Spurs and Arsenal in a little group behind the big boys but if the rumours of Usimonov at Arsenal not being happy then if he does go to Everton then that will catapult them into the big three category with United, Chelsea and City... You seem confused, you just said before that Everton will be in the Liverpool/Spurs/Arsenal bracket. So even if they achieve that in 3:4 years what exactly would Lukaku be waiting for...
